/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Quark comes up with some of the most philosophical perspectives about peace and arguments about war and conflict:

"They have weapons, you have weapons, everyone has weapons; but right now, no one has a clear advantage. So the price of peace is at an all-time low. This is the perfect time to sit down and hammer out an agreement."

He Out-Honored the leader of a klingon Great House....

He out-logiced a Vulcan.

Yea some of his views are kinda garbage, but Quark's a solid fellow once you come to terms with it.

Ferengi episodes > Cardassian > Klingon > Bajoran

Martok and Kira episodes are the exception that proves the rule.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's not what that means.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Confidently incorrect!

In this saying, “proves” refers to the older definition meaning “to test”.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sorry, but you're the one who's confidently incorrect. Your assertion is apocryphal at best.

The Magnificent Ferengi

Isn't there a whole term for jerking off their ears?

JFC NSFW tags exist for a reason dude

"You incompetent hu-man! You failed to apply the proper NSFW warning to this post, and now you've cost me latinum and dignity! I was on the transport tube, minding my own business, when I read this. Instantly, my lobes tingled, my hands acted of their own accord, and before I could recite Rule of Acquisition #62—The riskier the road, the greater the profit—I was engaging in some... highly unprofitable public activity!

The other passengers? Outraged! Shocked! One even threatened to call station security! And now, thanks to you, there's an entire transport car of Ferengi collectively engaging in the act of oo-mox! Disgusting! Uncivilized!

You owe me reparations for the lost business deals, the humiliation, and the potential bribes I now have to pay to avoid permanent transport banishment! Next time, apply the proper content tag, or better yet, make it a premium, latinum-exclusive post so only the truly worthy may risk public disgrace!"
